try using the search key function to search for your desired thread. I've tried suggesting to the staff of this forum to create sub forums but the feedback i got was, creating a subforum will slow down the traffic here due to multiple clicking to get to the desired topics. Instead they've introduced tagging system so u can tag ur topic and filtering topics as u desired to see them (events, travel, food)

As stated above ^^ i did the merging, perhaps i should stop doing so much of it. next time u can stress in the first post that u do not wish ur topic to be merged so i won't merge them in any way The world is very big so it is tough to create so many sub forums for all the areas, As lowyat.net is not mainly a travel forum. But anyhow I will keep this things in mind, perhaps in near future we can do something about. thanks for the suggestions.

I've tried suggesting it to the staff. Creating a sub sub forum for different continents will deter readers from browsing through so many different pages. I guess the tagging system will help for now

not sure about selling... my mum joint the club. many had called her up to ask her if she wants to sell her entitlement, which is weird why is there so many request/demand for her to sell..

anyway i heard they are closing some of the operation office. just received and sms (from a 013 number) not yet call up and ask if it is a scam or what....

my experience in staying in swiss garden kuantan, they give you rooms that are not of the best quality.. garden view.. standard room.. so i feel there is nothing really great about that.. unless u travel extensively, no point joining a vacation club

my mum joined the membership for almost 4 yrs i think...

Lolz.. 2006?? look at the time of the post

great to hear that. i took that picture while trekking to the cliffs area. Its good that the island is clean now but perhaps my picture can serve a purpose of reminding people how it was back in 2006 and not to throw rubbish into the sea again

usually travel agencies employ part timers (tour guides, freelancers, College students) to work in these fairs and it is possible that they give wrong information. But ethically if they are not sure they should consult the superior first. Like when i was working in Matta Fair, about 50 of us are part timers and 10 are full time staffs in the office.

This kinda situation shows that Malaysian travel agencies are not mature enough. plus government restriction for foreign own travel franchisers to enter malaysia, its hard to improve...

yeah i second that.. everything based on black and white..

these are timeshare/vacation club. not considered travel agency... unless u travel a lot, then it is worth it

I am not surprised... my nasi campur cost me RM 10 for 2 vege and 1 meat or something like that.. once bitten twice shy.. i never go there again. if i do i will know what to expect..

Very reputable agency and recommended by many local Malaysia tour guides.
